My Trip to the gates of India : Dreem destination challenge
Disclaimer : Everything below is fiction, and is my entry to the dreemport challenge
I was laying in bed thinking of what to do with all the free time I had, when the doorbell rang.
"who could that be" I thought.
I hurriedly jumped out of bed, ran down the hallway into the living room and straight to the front door. I opened the door to see an unfamiliar face. It was a tall man dressed in blue shirt and trousers.
"How may I help you" I asked
"Hello sir, I am a messenger from the castle of the royal highness of Dreemland @dreemsteem. She has sent me to give you a ticket for you and two people of your choice for a two day trip, to anywhere you want to go, and a 500 dollar budget." he replied
"wow, all this for me?“ I exclaimed
"yes sir, she says it's because you've been very involved in the development of dreemland. You have till tomorrow to pick your location, and the two people you would like to go with."
He turned back and left.
I was lost in thought for a moment. Trying to decide who would come with me and where we were going. In the end I settled for @k-banti and @demilade2all because they were both free.
"why India" Demilade asked
"I don't know, I guess Ive just always wanted to go there."
I had slept all through the flight, but we were finally here. We were at an airport in Mumbai . I asked for directions to the gates of India, and we were directed to a bus stop. We boarded the a bus to the gates of India. It cost us $2 per person.
The place was packed with tourists like us. We took lots of pictures ( majorly Demilade). We didn't even realize when time had gone. We were hungry, so we entered one of the many restaurants around the gates of India. We couldn't see any food we recognized, I decided we all just try the biryani. Each plate cost 5 dollars.
I don't know about them, but I enjoyed the meal. After that we went to the book our hotel room. Initially we wanted to spend the night at the Taj Mahal, but after looking at the price we settled for the Gordon house hotel which was actually quite good. I and K-banti shared a room while Demilade got her own room. We paid for 70 dollars per room.
The next day we were served breakfast in bed. We were told it was part of the payment we made.
After that we all took a trip to the jehangir art gallery. We paid 15 dollars per person to get in.
Then we went to the flora fountain. We had to pay about 5 dollars per person to get in, but the view was definitely worth it.
In the evening we bought some chicken and mutton Tikka rolls, around 30 dollars worth (we were really hungry). Then we went to the airport and boarded the plane that was already reserved for us back home.
On our way back home K-banti asked how much was remaining. I did my calculation and we had about 264 dollars left. We decided to use it for crypto investments.

I am sure their biryani taste almost the same as our Fried Rice. How do I even confirm when this was all fiction for you 😂😂
Nice trip sweetheart, I hope you do get to do this in real life. But if you do, don't forget to take me along, I'll be inside your luggages so that you won't have to foot my transportation bills 🤧🤣
It was spicy 😂😂
I'll be sure to take you. But are you sure you'll fit into my suitcase?😂😂
I'll definitely fit into your suitcase 🤣🤣🤣
A wonderful entry fir this challenge good luck
Thanks a lot
Most welcome
You were meant to use the money for vacation but you ended up using almost half of it for an investment.. Hmm.. Business man.. There is nothing in this life oo... You would have just enjoyed every bit of your vacation by spending more on some other things.
Anyways, I know you enjoyed every bit of your vacation. Nice one
@dreemport directed me to your post
😂😂😂 Its not like that. I just couldn't think of anything else to spend the money on. And I didn't want to waste it. I should have given some of it to people on the street though.
I did oo. Thanks for stopping by
There are so many other places you should have visited too... But all the same, you have your reasons....
🤣 You used our trip money to do crypto investment abi, someone is planning another trip behind the scene... I can sense that 😂
By the way, you guys had lots of fun and that flora mountain looks really nice to go there. Gates of India? I want to visit there someday, seem like a nice place to go too.
So you enjoyed that meal and you think @k-banti and @demilade2all didn't enjoy it? I trust my fellow Nigerians in a new place, we eat anything so long it's not frog or monkey brain 🤣
Awesome trip, I hope you get to go in reality but with me please 🥺😇
Got here through @dreemport
Saving and investment is good na 😂😂
Don't worry, I'll take you when I'm going
Good, I feel good pararararararara 😂
Yes oh! I most certainly enjoyed it😁
Not much of a foodie but I'm most certainly sure that my imaginative self did enjoyed this one.
Enjoying only Biryani and Tikka I suggest you taste chai and Gulab Jamun too hehe
I am missing photographs of the Taj Mahal, next time hire a best photographer friend 😁

Good luck 👍
I'm going to have to bring you with me next time I'm going. Seeing as I'm no expert in travel :)
Haha why not , 🙃 I am always having time for traveling and adventure
A night at the Taj Mahal! Now that will be something to look forward to when visiting India.
Scared of trying other meals? Hehe. Briyani is familiar so maybe I would have settle for that too... Still, you and your friends should have been adventurous and tried other foods! 😄
India is a lovely place to visit and I hope you and your friends had a lovely time.
Yeah, I guess we played it too safe. Will have to be more free next time
My favourite part of this journey was the food!😋
